Roles and access rights

Menu cog › General settings › Roles & permissions, and the member's record › Club data1 min read

In GestiClub, each person who logs in has a role. The role decides what they see and what they can do: manage the contacts, send emails, keep the accounts, or only consult their own profile. You do not set the rights person by person: you give a role, and the rights follow.

The role, the access and the permissions

Three notions complement each other:

  • the role: what the person is allowed to do. It is chosen on their record (see "Giving a person a role");
  • the access: their username and their password. The club never chooses them on their behalf: the person creates them themselves, from an email from the club (see "Opening a person's access");
  • the permissions: the detail of a role's rights, module by module: View, Add, Edit, Delete… They are shown in Settings › Roles & permissions, and set there for the roles created by the club.

A person can have a role without having an access yet: the role will apply as soon as they have created their access.
